Ellevest - Let’s bust some money myths! 👻

Three speech bubbles above an emoji ghost that read, “Women spend frivolously. Women are risk-averse. Women aren’t good with money.” Illustration.

These money myths are costing women+ money

When we say money myths are costing you money, we mean it literally — especially when you internalize those myths. For example, when you save your money instead of investing it, you may lose out on hundreds of thousands of dollars over a lifetime.

Here’s the truth: Women are better investors than men. But harmful money myths hold many of us back from participating in the financial industry — and, consequently, keep us from building wealth and living full lives.

Let’s tell a different story about women and money — join Ellevest and start investing today.
